What To Expect
Over the course of 2 hours, we'll have the chance to cover a lot, so your experience is exceptional! For the first 20 minutes, we'll go through some surf safety and theory that you should know. We'll continue with a few minutes of beach practicals, and then we will go straight into the water to start surfing! After 45 minutes of paddling, catching waves and (hopefully) standing, we'll head back to the beach for a quick break to drink some water and rest a little. Once you're ready, we'll head into the water for a further 45 minutes; round two of surfing! When we're done we'll pack up and return to the surf school all together! We are always happy to recommend the best times and dates for your lesson. Choosing the right tide conditions can make the difference between an average and an excellent first surfing experience; feel free to contact us for advice and recommendations for the best time for you. We'll provide everything you need, just bring your smile! N.B due to changes in the weather, the beach conditions can be changeable throughout the year, please note this is outside our control and we strive to do our best to make your experience excellent.

Best money I spent in Bali!

5.00The best money I spent in Bali was with the Bali Surf School. Everyone was super welcoming from the start, including a WhatsApp message before my booking which provided directions to their location. Steve (Sty), my instructor was a star. He provided just enough information on the beach to have me standing up after a few goes in the water. He provided great support and advice throughout the two 45 minutes sessions, and was a genuinely good laugh. I've not surfed before but managed to stand up and surf to the shore about 50% of the time - amazing really. After the lessons had finished I was offered a shower and ended up hanging around for a couple of beers (cheaper than the bars and better company). If this wasn't enough, the guys had also filmed and photographed my exploits and sent them to me via WhatsApp for free!! Fully recommended!! I'll be back!! .

4.00My nine year old loved her surfing lesson. Her coach was super patient and encouraging with her. They even messaged to changed the time to better suit a beginner child

5.00Such a fun experience! My one on one instructor was great and knew just how to help me get up on waves. The length of time was perfect - quick instructional tutorial and then in the water for about an hour, quick break, and then back in the water. I was pleasantly surprised (especially with as inexpensive as it was) that they took pictures and sent them to me - huge plus as a solo traveler!
Very patient. Good...

5.00Had a great time with the lads, very patient and extremely positive despite it being our first ever surfing lesson. The weather on the day was a bit rainy but the guys made sure that had no impact and once in the water, who cared anyway ….. Despite our lack of skill the guys made sure we knew what we needed and after a few attempt’s we both managed to get up and ride a few waves. Another tourist joined us for his second day and said these guys were best in Bali and I’d have to agree
Just like the reviews I...

5.00The guides were great. They seem to know what they are doing. We participated as a father with three kids aged 11, 14 and 18. Everyone had their own guide. The guides seems professional and we felt safe all the time. At the same time, they made sure every one got challenges due to their age, skills and interests. Will highly recommend them.
